2027 KTM 125 XC

Years of hard-charging Racing and Development have shaped the KTM 125 XC into one of the most aggressive 2-stroke weapons in GNCC competition. Light, responsive, and built to be ridden flat-out, the KTM 125 XC defines what a modern XC screamer should be.

Features may include:

• Easy Suspension Adjustment

As always, the suspension boasts an easy tool-free setup at both ends, ensuring you chase down the podium in total control. On the rear, a hand-adjustable dual compression option allows riders to adjust high- and low-speed settings in a matter of seconds. The forks on the front end are also easily modified thanks to hand-adjustable clickers on the bottom of the fork shoe and top cap.

• More Usable Power

The KTM 125 XC has always represented the very best of unmatched power and lightweight construction. The simplicity and low maintenance cost of the 2-stroke engine have made it a favorite among hardcore cross-country racers for generations. The KTM 250 XC rolls into the pits with the same legendary performance and a low engine weight of just 23.9 kg (52.6 lb) – with a mission to maintain its status as the benchmark to beat.

• Absolute Control

No matter how gnarly the trail is, you'll stay in complete control thanks to a rider-focussed frame design that has not only been engineered for longitudinal rigidity, but also repositions rotating mass closer to the center of gravity. Thick frame walls also improve reliability, flex characteristics and offer unmatched rider feel. The shock mounting also provides the perfect amount of anti-squat for better traction out of corners, while the footpeg mounting position is positoned in such a way to reduce the risk of hooking up on roots or rocks. Additionally, forged brackets on the lower frame rails allows for easy installation of the skid plate, too.

• Mass Centralization

Besides the expertly crafted, hydro-formed, laser-cut, and robot-welded frame being engineered to provide exceptional rider feedback and straight-line stability, the chassis consists of specifically calculated parameters of longitudinal and torsional flex. This means the frame acts as a "shock absorber" of sorts, making for a less harsh ride, resulting in less rider fatigue over many hard laps.

• Ultimate rigidity

Count on a durable chain guide and chain guard and minimize the chances of hooking on external objects - especially in extremely muddy terrain while reducing dirt build-up around the swingarm and rear sprocket.
